# Entitlements Key-value pairs that grant an executable permission to use a service or technology. ## Discussion An *entitlement* is a right or privilege that grants particular capabilities to an executable. For example, an app needs the [`HomeKit Entitlement`](/documentation/BundleResources/Entitlements/com.apple.developer.homekit) — along with explicit user consent — to access a user’s home automation network. An app stores its entitlements as key-value pairs embedded in the code signature of its binary executable. You configure entitlements for your app by declaring capabilities for a target in Xcode; see . Xcode records capabilities that you add in a property list file with the `.entitlements` extension. When code signing your app, Xcode combines the entitlements file, information from your developer account, and other project information to apply a final set of entitlements to your app. You typically let Xcode manage the entitlements file for you. For information on manually editing the file, see . ## Topics ### Essentials [Diagnosing Issues with Entitlements](/documentation/BundleResources/diagnosing-issues-with-entitlements) Verify your app’s entitlements at every stage of development to track down errors during distribution. ### Accessibility [`com.apple.developer.accessibility.merchant-api-control`](/documentation/BundleResources/Entitlements/com.apple.developer.accessibility.merchant-api-control) ### Accessory Access [`Accessory Access`](/documentation/BundleResources/Entitlements/com.apple.developer.accessory-access.usb) An entitlement that enables an app to use the Accessory Access framework to manage access to USB devices in macOS. ### AccessorySetupKit [`com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-discovery-extension`](/documentation/BundleResources/Entitlements/com.apple.developer.accessory-setup-discovery-extension) An entitlement that lets an app extension discover and set up accessories. ### Accessory Transport Extension [`com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-extension`](/documentation/BundleResources/Entitlements/com.apple.developer.accessory-transport-extension) An entitlement that enables your app extension to send sensitive data to an accessory.
